title: Allergenic variability in olea pollen.
abstract: Marked in vitro allergenic potency variations were observed among six different olive pollen batches as determined by RAST inhibition, in direct correlation with the content of a multimeric component of 55,000 D as analyzed by size-exclusion high performance liquid chromotography. Electrophoretical patterns displayed differences in a heterogeneous band of 20,000 D and isoelectric point around 5, which probably represents the monomeric form of the major allergen.
